Eight and a half inches? There's a lot of rim on the outside of those lugnuts. You sure with the chassis lowered your tire isn't going to rub on the edge of the fender?

Depends on the offset. Will need a decent amount of stretch though. Maybe 195/45

Unfortunately I have to agree. They look nice, but you're going to need some major fender work (or camber, or both) to pull those off and not rub. I'm seeing +17 to +20 offset when I look online.

Still - great choice on coils, can't wait to see what you do to it!

I think it's do-able, but you do have a poke there. You can camber the fronts, roll & pull the fenders, and stretch some tires, but you will be hellaflush and slammed. It's not a convenient or a performance-oriented set up, but there's nothing wrong with that. I think it looks badass.

It'll sit very pretty when it's done, nothing wrong with a stanced car. I have rolled/pulled fenders on both of my rides, and my Miata is about as flush as can be.

Can't wait to see it when it's done!
